When Lin in the game Lakers was always up, at one time was up 12. When he left the game, Laker was still up by 9. If Lin played in fourth quarter, it would be easy won, they wouldn't even need to play over time.
Also, Lakers win but Lin fanatics complaining they didn't get to see him play more. Clearly, winning is not high on their priority list, if there at all. Some things never change.
When you can have cake and also eat it, why not :grin: Both Hill & Boozer didn't play again for the 2nd straight games. So yea they in the process of evaluating their younger players for their future (and to sink w/o saying sinking)
Sounds exactly what tanking teams do. Too bad they got out-tanked. Maybe Zboy is right, should have played Lin for the tank.

Trolls are the rookie status users here who are also on the lakers board actively posting. Obviously not a die hard rockets fan .
Karolik, Why do you smile when you say, "Would you like fries with that order?" It's because you are a professional.
This opinion is why you are on here and not a head coach of a NBA team. On the contrary, Pressey benched Lin for the rest of the fourth quarter because they were trying to tank. Turns out, Flip Saunders is a better chess player. Ya can't out tank a tank master. This is bad for basketball, bad for fans.
Pressey sucks at hiding the tank - DNP's his best rebounding bigs during the OKC game, giving Kanter a double double in the first quarter. OKC is the best rebounding team in the league - DNP's the same bigs and plays a tank lineup against the T-Wolves in the 4th and OT. Tells everyone it's to develop the rooks even though Ellington stays in the lineup shooting 3/19 So damn obvious
Los Angeles needs to keep jeremy lin. They have kim Kardashian who's also super popular for being overrated.
424, wonder how many pages this thread jumps everyday. Im very tired of seeing this on top every single day, same non sense bs talk.
